You hear a lot about how a rack and pinion conversion kit can improve your car’s steering and make it a lot more fun to drive, but it is a big investment and you may be wondering if it is really worth it. We think it is – and here’s why. First of all there are only a few avenues of truly communicating with your car. Basically just your hands through your steering wheel and your feet through the throttle and brakes (yes, and maybe your butt in the seat if you want to get technical…) So if the only communication with your fire breathing beast is through your hands and feet, you want to make sure you have as much detail as you can get to control it properly. That is where Steeroids™ comes in. Our engineers have come up with a way to remove the old steering gear box (which is the same technology they used in the 1950’s) and replace it with a quick ratio modern rack and pinion unit. And the best part is that you don’t have to drill, cut or weld anything – it bolts right into place.
Ok, so what makes it worth it? Many customers have told us that the Steeroids™ kit was THE number one purchase they have made for improving their car. The difference was noticeable immediately. Why? Because the car is finally truly controllable. There is no more sloppy dead spot on center. The car doesn’t dart and wander all over the road any more. It goes where you point it without having to saw on the steering wheel to keep it in the lane. When you hit bumps it doesn’t try to unexpectedly change lanes on you. But what makes Steeroids stand out is that our engineers spend a lot of time and energy making sure the geometry is correct and making sure you have adjustability to fine tune it to your car. Sure, anyone can bolt a rack and pinion to a car, but that does not mean they did the research to properly address bump steer. And that is one of the biggest differences between Steeroids™ and other kits on the market. Steeroids™ are the only kits out there with adjustable tie rod ends to properly address bump steer – and that is why we can make your car not only steer better but actually handle better.
